You are invited to play!

Blooming Lovely- just the way you are!

So many have asked about a Queen Babs yarnbomb they can be involved in and although I have no set date except 2016, here is information and an invitation for those really wanting to get started on something.

I have been touched quite closely by two people, male and female very dear to me feeling so insecure and unhappy about their appearance that they have either gone to drastic lengths with surgery and chemicals or with self harm. I also know a young lady who is long, slim and beautiful who nevertheless thinks she is fat. I know many with eating disorders or lack of confidence too.

Many of us have felt unattractive or ugly because of peer pressure or because we do not fit the mass media representation of beauty. We often feel pressured by the beauty industry to diet, dye, cover up and alter ourselves. Our self worth takes a big hit. As we grow older we may learn to accept that our true beauty comes from within, but it can be a hard struggle.

This yarnbomb is to raise awareness of the issue and reinforce that each and everyone of is lovely just the way we are, in fact we are Blooming Lovely! 🌷🌸🌹🌺🌻💐🌼

﻿People will be represented by flowers, every flower being different in colour, size and shape - just like people. ﻿

If you wish to be involved I am asking for -- *crochet, knitted or felt flowers* if yarn then acrylic or cotton* in a huge variety of colour and styles* maximum size 10cm* Each flower would be best if it was predominantly ONE main colour ( it does not have to be ONLY one colour)* Please NO fluro!*aim for pretty flowers with lovely colour and nice details. Better one nice flower than 10 boring ones!
